LAWYERS. WILLS


Legal LumlnArjes Who BluDaeeo4 b Di0.
posing Of Their Wealth.
English lawyers, when dining to-
gether hundred years ago. used to
toast 1.-The schoolmasters." who then
wrote wills and. by their ignorance,
gave the profession much remunerative
business. In this country the following
toast used to be favorite at dinners of
the bar: ITO the lawyers best friend
the man who makes his own will"
Both the letter and the spirit of this
toast have been illustrated by the litiga-
ton which has arisen over the wills of
lawyers. made by themselves. Lord st.
Leonards. one of the most distinguished
of the Lord Chancellors of England Of
the present century. left will. drawn
up by himself, which caused long and
costly litigation. SirJoseph Jekyll, an
excellent lawyer. left his fortune to pay
the national debt, and the court set it
aside on the ground of imbecility. ''Sir
Joseph" said Lord Mansfield. Knight
as well have attempted to stop the mid
die arch Of Blaekfriars' bridge with his
full-bOttomed wig.
Lord Mansfield's will was written by
himself on half a sheet Of paper, and
not in the usual form; but it proved
vrlid for the disposal of property to the
amount of two and half million
pounds sterling. Lord StOweli was
eminent as Judge. but ''near' as a
man. In order to save the legacy duty
he, during his lifetime, made over to
his son William the twenty thousand
pounds intended for him. But the son,
who died first, made a will, leaving the
amount to his father, who was thus
obliged to pay the duty. His LOrdship
bequeathed it to Lady Sidmouth, and
after his death the legacy was con-
tested.
There are many instances extant of
eatlawyers laundering in the making
Of their own wills, and there is one case
where a lawyer purposely left his will
obscure. SERGEANT Maynard. an emil
nent black-letter lawyer, had perplexed
himself over some very fine points Of
law. He, therefore, left will worded
in such terms as would cause litigation
to arise on the points he wished the
courts to settle.-Iouth's Companion.

LoHpoS. June 21-The first day Of the

for the celebration Of Her Majesty's i1bi-

clear and not very warm, and gentle
breeze blew steadily. The crowds scat
tered over the city unprecedented in
uumb ers and size. Thousands OK
peop,e who yesterday selected loca-
tons along the route of to-day's
procession, in order to retain them occu-
pied them all night, and many used camp
stools or improvised rests to enable them

and pedestrians poured constantly all

O'Clock thi. morning every point of want

procession route was secured. At nine
o'clock the liue Of route was on each side

despite the discomfort OF the crowding,
manifested the utmost good humor.

the scene presented was incor parable.

the picture was indescri bable. This au-

Cattlemen Meet.

SPRINGFIELD. Ill, June A.-Many Of the
leading breeders and shippers Of cattle Of
the central portion Of the State held a meet
ing yesterday and effected q formal organi-
zation for the purpose OF combating the
proposed change in the rates for the ship
ment of cattle from the car-lot plan to that
by weights. A memorial was adopted for
transmission to the Secretary Of the Treas
ury setting forth that contagious
pleuro-pncumonia existed to an alarm
ing extent in Scotland; that cattle
from the infected districts were allowed to
land in Canadian ports, and that as the
Treasury Department Of the United States
had scheduled against the importation Of
cattle from Scotland, shipments Of cattle
from Canada to the United States should
be prohibited until the Dominion authori-
ties should take such action in regard tc
the shipments OF cattle from Scotland as
should insure certain immunity to the
United States from their importation
through Canadian territory.
